Leave your thoughts about Last Night in Soho.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperIt’s a crazy kaleidoscope of bright colors, dark corners, David Lynch-style set pieces and shock moments designed to keep you up at night — and it features a quintet of memorable performances from two of the best young actors around and three iconic Brits. |
| Film ThreatAndy HowellAs clever as the plot is, how it comes to life is something to behold — a command to witness awesome splendor is really the only word that fits here. |
| IndieWireNicholas BarberLeft behind is [Wright's] trademark hyperactive editing and insistent post-modernism; in its place is flowing movement and intense emotion. |
| Screen DailyWendy IdeIt’s a blast. Last Night In Soho is the kind of good time which isn’t over until someone’s either crying or bleeding. And oh, how we’ve all missed those nights! |
| The Hollywood ReporterDavid RooneyLast Night in Soho is an immensely pleasurable film that delights in playing with genre, morphing from time-travel fantasy to dark fairy tale, from mystery to nightmarish horror in a climax that owes as much to ’60s Brit fright fare as to more contemporary mind-benders. |
| TheWrapJason SolomonsMixing glorious pastiche and gory ghost story, director Edgar Wright’s Last Night in Soho will stand as one of the best London movies of new decade. |
| The Seattle TimesMoira MacdonaldThough Wright can’t quite sustain the tension through the final half-hour, Last Night in Soho is full of dark pleasures. |
| Paste MagazineAurora AmidonLast Night in Soho culminates as a chic and dynamic expression of Edgar Wright at the height of his powers. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisNothing in Wright’s previous work quite prepared me for Last Night in Soho, its easy seductiveness and spikes of sophistication. Dissolving the border between present and past, fact and fantasy, the director (aided by the euphoric talents of the cinematographer Chung-hoon Chung) has produced some of the most dazzling imagery of his career. |
| Original-CinJim SlotekI’m a fan of Wright’s work, so I’m disappointed that Last Night in Soho doesn’t hold up on both halves. But the parts that work, work terrifically. |
